The ELEDIA Research Center was honored to welcome Prof. Alessio Monti from the Università degli studi Roma TRE for an engaging seminar titled “Metasurfaces for Controlling Scattering and Radiative Performance of Antenna Systems”. Prof. Monti’s groundbreaking research explores both theoretical and practical aspects of metamaterials and metasurfaces, particularly at microwave and optical frequencies. His expertise encompasses the design of advanced functional covers, invisibility solutions for antennas and antenna arrays, and the electromagnetic modeling of micro- and nano-structured artificial surfaces. We extend our heartfelt thanks…

Today, the ELEDIA Research Center had the privilege of hosting Prof. Mohsen Khalily (University of Surrey) for a very interesting seminar entitled “Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces for communication, computing and sensing”. Prof. Khalily’s work focuses on cutting-edge Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) designs, developed to control and optimize the wireless propagation environment. We deeply appreciate Prof. Khalily for sharing his expertise and inspiring insights. Thank you for an enlightening and enriching seminar!
